The main representative of Romanticism, whose vigor corresponds to the extent of his career.
At the age of 40, his reputation was sufficiently established to allow him to receive important commissions from the State.
He painted on canvas and decorated the walls and ceilings of public monuments.
He also left engravings and lithographs, several articles written for magazines and a Journal published shortly after his death and reprinted several times.
Noticed at the Salon in 1824, in the following years he produced works inspired by historical or literary anecdotes as well as contemporary events (Liberty Leading the People) or a trip to the Maghreb (Women of Algiers in their Apartment).
